The veil between love and hate is blurring.

In the mystical town of Foxford, tenacious translator Lucinda Hawthorne is on the brink of assuming the prestigious role of High Priestess. However, fate has a mischievous twist in store for her: an unexpected coven gathering reveals that her lifelong nemesis, Benedict Matherson, is also nominated for the esteemed position. They are presented with a grave ultimatum: either become magically bound to one another on All Hallows' Eve... or risk a fateful vote that could strip them of everything.

Both fiercely independent and driven by their unwavering desires to lead, Lucinda and Benedict reluctantly agree to the binding ritual. Unfortunately, the spell Lucinda's family casts to thwart the coven's plot misfires with surprising consequences, and the pair find themselves magically intertwined in ways they never could have foreseen.

With the shadow of All Hallows' Eve looming over them, the veil between love and hate blurs. Could it be that amidst their rivalry, they will unearth a hidden longing to remain united? Together, they must confront their demons and discover whether they truly desire to be parted after all.

✨Reviews for the Village of Foxford✨

Enemies-to-lovers trope is expertly crafted, drawing readers into a web of emotions - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I love that there wasn't a 3rd act breakup. 2 people who used to "hate" each other, constantly pulling pranks, while also caring about each other, is such a unique relationship. - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Watching them come together against all odds, and put their prank rivalry aside for something more powerful was so heartwarming. - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Lucinda and Benedict's witchy tale has made me want to pack my bags and move to Foxford. - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
